How is it like working with your committee for Pitch Night, one of the flagship events of the semester for N-House, and how has the committee supported you on this?

Working with my committee was a breeze as N House brings together talented individuals who are passionate and highly adept in their work. It also helped that I was in charge of last semester's Pitch Night and have been through the NOC program. This helped build my networks within ASEAN's startup ecosystem and imparted valuable skills like sales funnel strategies which were beneficial in our outreach to sponsors and judges.
A bit about myself: I used to be a bartender, now I enjoy slinging drinks and creating tasty concoctions for my loved ones . I also enjoy hitting the gym and boxing

Could you introduce your interest group and share what are the exciting activities that you have organized? and what is your most memorable experience in one of the events?

At N-House we have a range of interest groups for our residents to participate in! From Morning Coffee ☕️ to weekly skate 🛹sessions at west coast park, N-House has it all.... like literally.... we have an interest group just to talk about crypto 🪙or a foodie 🍜 group to go on food hunts 🤩 together!

Some exciting activities are like our BELLY BURNERS (running 🏃‍♂️ interest group) having a 100km cumulative goal to run together or N-Hikes going for a hike up Mount 🗻 Faber :) The n-Gym group has bufflords 💪 there as well but they're all super friendly and supportive

My most memorable experience would be going to n-gym.... because I always feel awkward in the gym 🏋️ and don't really know what to do but everyone is really kind and these KINGSSSS 👑 will help me change my weights for me ^_^ LOL ok besides that every experience is a mem

What has N-house provided you with learning opportunities? How have interacting with N-House residents/startups been like for you?

N-House provided me with various learning opportunities. In my case I will say they were three main learning channels. 1. Wicked Wednesday where I was able to learn more about entrepreneurship (Buz Models, Digital Marketing, pitching, successful founders,etc). 2. N-Crypto, where I learnt about cryptocurrencies,NFTs, DeFi and blockchain related topics. 3. Finally, I found the best learning opportunity in the n-house members. I was able to learn so much from each person I met.

It has been an amazing and truly enriching experience. My interactions range from eating tacos in a Mexican restaurant with n-house members to discussing buz ideas 💡 for the next 🦄 start-up. People pitch ideas to me everywhere, in the commhall, the bus, and even in the gym🤣

How do you feel about the entire journey during the preparation for pitch night? How has the community in N-house and perhaps NCSG helped you and motivated you to build your startup idea?

1. When I signed up for pitch night I was excited to have an opportunity to explore business pitching. During the entire planning process, it was definitely very stressful. Although the results were not in my team’s favour, we have learnt a lot from the feedback given and will continue to work on our idea!

2. The people in n house and my batch are definitely very encouraging and very willing to share our startup ideas and give each other feedback. This really gave me a safe space to explore entrepreneurship as well as make connections with so many wonderful aspiring entrepreneurs!

Can you tell us a story of your most unique moment in N-House? The moment when you realised N-House is the community for you?

It has not happened yet but it is definitely going to be the Pizza Party I am going to host with other N-House mates. Having the privilege to feed so many people of vastly different cultures and tastes and preferences, at sunset hour, will not only be a rewarding experience but may also inspire me to create new flavours and concoctions as a pizza chef.

It was the first ever supper I had with my tribemates. The conversation centred around each one of my tribemates' entrepreneurial ambition and ideas were so refreshing and inspiring. This was the exact moment I realised there will be no other community like N-House.

What is one thing/experience that attracted you to join N-house and continue staying here as the RA?

As a final semester student, it was a (really) belated sense of belonging to the school that drove my decision to stay at N-House as a resident assistant (RA). Call it cliche, but i wanted to live my final months as a student on “carpe diem” mode and experience the N-House life to its fullest. I was fortunate to have the chance to do so as an RA even though I was a first time resident, and I thoroughly enjoyed the entire entrepreneurial residential life that N-House has to offer. Throughout these couple of months, I not only had the chance to bond with my tribe members, fellow RAs but also gain support and invaluable guidance from the helpful staff in planning events (shoutout to Hussein, Siti and Amir!!) ✨☺️ it has been a helluva ride - cheers to N-House!

How is your experience as a mentor in N-House? Can you share one of the most interesting startups from the N-House resident?

1. Being my first semester as the RAD for NHouse, the experience has been incredibly heartwarming, especially seeing the students grow and come up with amazing ideas in both the N-Novate challenge and Pitch Night. Looking forward to the next semester!

2. Mechie D's has to be the one that caught my eye the most. I thought it was incredibly innovative to utilize used face masks for vacuums, and the fact that they had a working prototype just made it all. the more impressive.

What’s the best thing about being an N-House RA? Highlight a challenge that helped you grow as an RA!

The best thing about being an RA is definitely meeting like-minded people! N-House allowed me to work in amazingly diverse settings and allowed me to forge meaningful connections with so many people. Having the opportunity to organise various Wicked Wednesday including Pitch Night has also deepen my understanding of what entrepreneurship really is. Really enjoyed the experience, no regrets 😊

One challenge is definitely stepping out of my comfort zone, as someone new in the position, I am unfamiliar with many things at the start, but with the friendly residents and all the other lovely RAs, I adapted fast and loved the experience!
